Nihon Naika Gakkai Zasshi, 1964 Renin-angiotensin系は腎性高1血圧の昇圧機構を説明しようとする一つの興味ある所見である.本態性および腎性高血圧者,特にその急性期では,血中のangiotensin量が増加し,末梢血管のangiotensinに対する反応性が増強しているといわれている.著者らは高血圧の成因が異なるに従い,生体のangiotensinに対する反応が異なるのではないかとの想定の下に,α-1 asp-5 val-angiotensin IIおよびβ-1 asp-5val-angiotensin IIを用い,正常者並びに高血圧者に皮内反応を行なつた.本態性および腎性高血圧患者では,正常血圧者に比し本反応の持続時間の延長を認め,それに反し大動脈硬化に由来すると思われる心・血管性高血圧では延長しないことを認めた ...
